Billie Baird Medical testing onpatients in children's homes. Aston Hall Hospital Aston Hall Hospital was started in 1924 to house patients with mental health problems, but used two seperate blocks for a children's home, one for boys and one for girls. My mum was sent to this home at age 12. Dr Milner Narco Analysis A person is abe to lie by using their imagination, in the Narco Analysis test, the subjects imagination is neutralised by making them semi-conscious. In this state, it becomes difficult for them to lie and their answers would be restricted to facts they are already aware of. Waterhouse inquiery Investigations are taking place now to review claimes of abuse in the 1970s/80s at the former Byrne Estyn childrens home in North Wales. "I am doing some research on Aston Hall psychiatric hospitall and am trying to find anyone who worked there or was a patient in the 1960s and early 1970s. In particular, can anyone remember a psychiatrist called Dr Milner or anything else about the place?" -Fiona Dawson, reporter for the telegraph newspaper. Dr Milner was the psychiatrist at Aston Hall Hospital. He would use the children to test the effects of Narco Analysis, simply because in the 1970s, the children in children's homes were easier to get a hold of and no one really cared. his family was so ashamed of what he did they distroyed all files of him. "i remeber, if he said to you 'no tea tonight', you knew you were going to the cell and you dreaded it. i could hear him whealing the trolly down the hallway, it was teriffying. he would lay me down on the rubber bench and inject me with something. then it went black. then i remember wearing a mask and him dripping ethol on it, then i'd wake up in my bed the next morning, and be told i couldn't go to lessons that day. we didn't know what was going on, it was just called treatment." - My Mum.
